Hi
Was just wondering if anyone here used a moses basket for the first wee while after bubs was born. How did you find it? We have brought a cot but I am thinking of getting a Moses basket for the first bit and either putting it in the cot or otherwise having it in our room with us.
Also can somebody please tell me what you need in terms of bedding - how many sheets, blankets, mattress protectors etc. Also what did you use for sheets and blankets for the Moses basket?
Thanks for any tips and advice.

We just put both our boysin the cot straight away. in terms of sheets and things - we had two sets of sheets for both winter and summer- but three would've been better for those times when you can't get washing dry or bubs is particulary messy. We only had two mattress protectors which seem to have been fine. Blankets - we have a million. thanks Nana! But we wrap him in one and he has one or two over him. We have very hot children, and we try and keep the room at a nice temp too. that coupled with nice snuggly pjs meant that we don't use too many blankets. We do use them for bubs to roll around on though.

I would have loved a moses basket!!! We had Joey in his carry co in our room for the first 5 weeks and then in to his cot as he outgrew it so fast
